EH2861959 - 1960 Six telegrams written by Hemingway to friends Hotchner and Davis from Málaga and Havana. Near fine with light creasing and toning and some minor notes in pencil. Overall a wonderful kaleidoscopic archive that captures the final years of Hemingway. Housed in a custom maroon clamshell box with spine lettered in gilt. In this small archive of telegrams Ernest Hemingway writes to his rich American expatriate friend Nathan William Bill Davis and friend and editor A. E. Hotchner. In the summer of 1959 Ernest and Mary Hemingway stayed at Bill and Annie Davis home La Consula in Málaga while Ernest gathered materials for a Life magazine piece on a bullfighting rivalry between two brothers Luis Miguel Dominguín and Antonio Ordóñez. Eventually the piece ballooned to more than 100000 words and Hemingway enlisted the help of A. E. Hotchner to pare it down. Titled The Dangerous Summer the piece was released in Life in three installments in 1960. It was published posthumously in book form in 1985 and is considered to be Hemingways last major work. In these telegrams among other things Hemingway writes to Davis about the bullfights and the prospect of returning to Málaga in the summer of 1960 and to Hotchner about edits to The Dangerous Summer..

193726387<p>New York:: Scribner's 1937. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket with just a hint of wear to the head of the spine. To Have and Have Not was Hemingway's second novel set in the United States after The Torrents of Spring. Written sporadically between 1935 and 1937 and revised as he traveled back and forth from Spain during the Spanish Civil War To Have and Have Not portrays Key West and Cuba in the 1930s and provides a social commentary on that time and place. Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers describes the novel as heavily influenced by the Marxist ideology Hemingway was exposed to by his support of the Republican faction in the Spanish Civil War while he was writing it. The novel had its origins in two short stories published earlier in periodicals by Hemingway "One Trip Across" and "The Tradesman's Return" which make up the opening chapters and a novella written later which makes up about two-thirds of the book. The narrative is told from multiple viewpoints at different times by different characters and the characters' names are frequently supplied under the chapter headings to indicate who is narrating that chapter.</p> Scribner's, hardcover

Its spare restrained style became a hallmark of his work. Nowhere is this more evident than in the ending which he rewrote 47 times before settling on a version that simply reports what happened without commentary or consolation. That decision marked a break from the narrative conventions of the 19th century and helped define the tone of modernist fiction. The novel remains one of the most influential works of the twentieth century appearing on the Modern Library's list of the 100 best English-language novels Time Magazine's All-Time 100 Novels and The Guardian's "1000 Novels Everyone Must Read."</p><p>Inventory ID: 391 - 143 - 768</p> Charles Scribner's Sons hardcover

1935111655New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1935. First edition of Hemingway's second work of nonfiction an account of a month on safari he and his wife took in East Africa during December 1933. Octavo original green cloth decorations by Edward Shenton. Contemporary bookplate to the pastedown near fine in a bright near fine price-clipped dust jacket with light rubbing. A very sharp example. Green Hills of Africa was published in 1935 but initially appeared in Scribners Magazine the same year Meyers 1985. The first edition explains that Hemingway "attempted to write an absolutely true book to see whether the shape of a country and the pattern of a month's action can if truly presented compete with a work of the imagination." The author's intentions were quickly confirmed when the first print-run sold a popular 10500 copies and it was aptly praised by The New York Times as "a fine book on death in the African afternoon.The writing is the thing; that way he has of getting down with beautiful precision the exact way things look smell taste feel sound." Not unlike Hemingway's virtuosic abilities Green Hills of Africa also offers the writer's opinions on the value of his contemporaries: "The good American writers are Henry James Stephen Crane and Mark Twain Henry James wanted to make money. He never did of course." Hemingway adds that most American writers are inadequate and "came to a bad end" The value of Green Hills of Africa therefore is three-fold. It serves as masterly written entertainment a successful social experiment that tested the receptivity of the American public and an insight into the author's literary evaluation. The Observer is correct when it wrote "If he were never to write again his name would live as long as the English language for Green Hills of Africa takes its place beside his other works on that small shelf in our libraries which we reserve for the classics."

1937151967New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1937. First edition of Ernest Hemingway's fourth novel. Octavo bound in full morocco by the Harcourt Bindery with gilt titles and ruling to the spine in five compartments within raised gilt bands gilt ruling to the front and rear panels signature stamp to the front panel gilt inner dentelles stamp-signed by the Harcourt Bindery marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Boldly signed by actress Lauren Bacall on a page bound in. Lauren Bacall born Betty Joan Perske in the Bronx and educated at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts — was one of the most iconic presences in Hollywood cinema whose smoky vocal delivery cool intelligence and physical composure made her a defining figure of the film noir era. Her screen debut in Howard Hawks's To Have and Have Not 1944 adapted loosely from Ernest Hemingway's 1937 novel with a screenplay by Jules Furthman and William Faulkner — remains one of the most celebrated entrances in cinema history: nineteen years old and entirely unknown Bacall appeared opposite Humphrey Bogart in the role of Marie "Slim" Browning producing one of the most palpable on-screen chemistries Hollywood has ever captured and introducing "The Look" her characteristic pose of tilting her chin down and gazing upward through half-lidded eyes that became her permanent visual signature. The mutual attraction between Bacall and Bogart proved entirely genuine; they married in 1945 and remained together until his death in 1957 one of Hollywood's most celebrated love stories. Bacall went on to win two Tony Awards for her Broadway work and received an Academy Award nomination for The Mirror Has Two Faces 1996. In fine condition. To Have and Have Not Charles Scribner's Sons 1937 is Ernest Hemingway's fourth novel and the only one set entirely in the United States — or more precisely in the sun-bleached Depression-wracked world of Key West Florida and the waters between there and Cuba — and it occupies a somewhat anomalous place in the Hemingway canon as a work of considerable cultural impact whose literary reputation has never quite matched its commercial success. Written in piecemeal format during his travels and originally published as two separate short stories and a novella the novel's disjointed structure is apparent in the continuity of its plot — a structural vulnerability that critics seized upon immediately. Delmore Schwartz harshly dismissed it as a stupid and foolish book a disgrace to a good writer and many other critics shared this sentiment yet the novel underwent four printings within its first two months remained on the bestseller list from October to December 1937 sold 36000 copies in its first five months and earned Hemingway his first cover feature on Time magazine. Kirk Curnutt has aptly described it as that rare example of a novel whose cultural impact far outweighs its critical reputation and its influence on American popular culture extended well beyond the page: Howard Hawks's celebrated 1944 film adaptation starring Humphrey Bogart and introducing Lauren Bacall in her screen debut departed so substantially from its source material — retaining little beyond the title and the Caribbean setting — that it effectively became an independent work and it is Hawks's film rather than Hemingway's novel that most readers unconsciously recall when the title is invoked.
